Glacier Melting Reveals Long-Lost Mountaineers
Climbers were part of a 1992 expedition to Weissmies summit, reaching Almagell hut before bad weather.
Remains were found in Saas-Grund, leading to recovery and transport to Valais Hospital.
Climate change is accelerating glacier melting, releasing remains and leading to discoveries.
Valais police maintain a list of missing persons since 1925, focusing on high-altitude cases.
Another mountaineer from 1994 was found last year on Ober Gabelhorn.
